Why an actuator?

• PRO
• Compact (recirculating ball bearing is inside)
• Better control on backlash (lt 5 micron)
• No need for us to coat the lead screw (WS2
  impingement can damage the threads)
• Our mechanism is more compact
• CONS
• Limited pusher travel (52mm)
• Limited force (lt200N recommended)
